Oddly mesmerizing: 252 space blankets [video]

Put a machine artist and a graphic designer in a room and what do you end up with? (Well, if you add a priest, the answer is probably a rib-tickling joke.) Answer: a beautifully enchanting video.

Sven Volker and Nils Volker used 252 inflatable space blankets to create an exhibit called Capture: A Homage to Light and Air. The shiny silver blankets bubble and crackle as pulsating lights dance across the 130 square meters of space they occupy, resulting in a dazzling futuristic show.

Side note: Don’t be surprised if the sudden urge for Jiffy Pop overwhelms you.
